Chapter 110: Dao Heart Collapses, Sowing Discord

"Tsk tsk, is this the Ice Spirit Cold Fire, ranked twenty-first on the Exotic Fire Rankings? A good item, but what a pity…"

Zhou Chen paused, watching Ye Chen's livid expression, his smile widening.

"What a pity. Your Opportunity was excellent, but now it belongs to me."

"You're courting death!"

Flame Emperor Slash!

Nine Turns Nirvana Art — Departing Fire Seal!

Ye Chen was completely enraged and lost all reason. Regardless of whether the ice cave could withstand his attack, he had only one thought in his mind: kill Zhou Chen.

His Fire Qi surged violently throughout his body, transforming into a ferocious Dragon of fire. Carrying an Aura of destruction, it lunged fiercely toward Zhou Chen!

The temperature inside the ice cave rose sharply.

A faint look of disdain appeared in Zhou Chen's eyes.

He did not dodge or evade, simply raising his hand casually.

Boom!

Flames intertwined with gold, cyan, and black colors rose in his palm. The previously imposing Dragon of fire was instantly swallowed, as if it had never appeared at all.

Samadhi True Fire!

"Trash is trash."

Zhou Chen flicked his fingers as if dusting off a speck of dirt.

"Is this all the ability you have after joining the Yanhuo Holy Land? I gave you a chance, but you couldn't make use of it!"

Zhou Chen continued to mock Ye Chen.

"Also, you smell terrible. Did you go to the central cave of Burning Heaven Valley to soak in the hot springs? I passed by and couldn't help but relieve myself in there."

Hearing this, Ning Yun nearby felt sick to her stomach and quietly moved a few steps further away from Ye Chen.

"Die!"

Hearing this, Ye Chen's eyes turned blood-red; he had gone completely insane.

He slammed his chest, spitting out a mouthful of essence blood that transformed into blood-red flame runes filling the sky. A phantom of a fire demon condensed behind him, and his Aura surged!

"Burning your essence blood? Is that it?"

Zhou Chen sneered, his eyes remaining completely calm.

"Shut up!"

Ye Chen shrieked sharply, and the flame phantom roared as it lunged at Zhou Chen.

"Vulnerable."

Zhou Chen took a step forward and threw a plain, unremarkable punch.

Chaos Spiritual Energy circulated on his fist, carrying a terrifying power that suppressed everything!

Bang!

The fire demon phantom couldn't even last half a breath; it let out a shrill wail before shattering into pieces.

Ugh!

Ye Chen felt as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer, and blood sprayed wildly from his mouth.

His entire body was slammed fiercely against the ice wall by the terrifying force!

"Don't come any closer!"

Seeing Ye Chen instantly severely injured by Zhou Chen, Ning Yun was filled with shock and fear. She screamed and blocked Ye Chen's front.

"Junior Sister Ning! Move aside!"

Ye Chen struggled to get up, his eyes filled with shock and fear. Zhou Chen's strength was actually this terrifying now.

"This bastard is mine! Let me butcher him myself!"

A cold arc formed at the corner of Zhou Chen's mouth.

He didn't even look at Ye Chen again, his gaze sweeping casually toward Ning Yun, whose fingers were already forming hand seals.

"Trying to ambush me?"

Zhou Chen's voice had no emotional fluctuation at all.

"Go to hell!"

Having her intentions seen through, Ning Yun's face instantly paled. Gritting her teeth, a streak of crimson light erupted from her fingertips, stabbing directly at Zhou Chen's back!

This was her trump card, the Low Grade Holy-tier Magic Treasure, Crimson Flame Needle. It was designed specifically to break through protective Spiritual Qi. The Crimson Flame Needle was tempered with a deadly poison so potent that ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators would die upon contact!

Swish!

Zhou Chen did not turn around, nor did he make any movement.

A trace of joy appeared on Ning Yun's face.

However, the next moment.

The invincible Crimson Flame Needle was firmly fixed three inches from Zhou Chen's body, as if it had hit an invisible wall.

Snap!

Zhou Chen flicked his hand casually, and the flame needle instantly turned into powder.

This level of attack could not possibly break through Zhou Chen's protective Spiritual Qi, let alone when he also possessed High Grade Holy-tier inner armor and the Undying Golden Body.

With her Spiritual Artifact destroyed, Ning Yun let out a muffled groan, her body swaying unsteadily.

"Cheap tricks."

Zhou Chen's tone was disdainful, his figure appearing beside Ning Yun like a ghost.

Ning Yun only felt a blur before her eyes, and an irresistible force slammed fiercely into her abdomen!

Pfft—

She couldn't even let out a scream, spitting out a large mouthful of blood before fainting completely.

Zhou Chen didn't even look, taking another step to arrive in front of Ye Chen, who was slumped on the ground.

Zhou Chen gently raised his foot and stepped mercilessly onto Ye Chen's face!

Thud!

The cold sole of his boot completely crushed Ye Chen's last shred of dignity.

"Arghhhhhhh—!"

This familiar action from Zhou Chen made Ye Chen's Dao Heart nearly collapse!

"Trash, have you forgotten the taste of being stepped on by me so quickly?"

"You can't even take one punch from me, and you still deserve to be called a Genius of the Yanhuo Holy Land? Fire Spirit Body? Heh, just a trash body. If you suck, practice more!"

"Zhou Chen! I will kill you! I will kill your whole family! I will exterminate your nine generations!"

Ye Chen was so enraged his eyes were splitting; the immense humiliation drove him completely mad.

"Master! Help me! Kill Zhou Chen! Use your power to kill him!!! I want him dead! He must die!!! Help me quickly!"

Ye Chen didn't even care about hiding the Ring Spirit's existence and shouted it out directly.

However, only dead silence responded to him.

Immense fear instantly engulfed Ye Chen. Could it be that even Master has abandoned me?!

"Old thing, you've watched the show for so long, aren't you coming out yet? Or perhaps you also think this idiot who only knows how to clamor, and is even worse than trash, is not worth saving?"

Just then, Zhou Chen's voice, laced with a hint of playfulness, rang out.

Ye Chen's pupils constricted, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"How does he know?"

The space seemed to freeze for a moment.

A Soul fluctuation carrying an ancient Aura finally began to diffuse from Ye Chen's body.

With a faint shimmer, an old phantom slowly condensed in front of Ye Chen.

It was none other than the Ring Spirit.

The phantom looked at Ye Chen, who was glaring with spite under Zhou Chen's foot, with unspeakable exhaustion and deep disappointment.

"Sigh…"

The Ring Spirit looked up at Zhou Chen. That gaze was incredibly complex, filled with surprise, scrutiny, and even a hint of wariness.

"Young man, you have sharp eyes to be able to discover my existence. Indeed, he is truly a complete piece of trash now. He has the favor of Luck, yet lacks even a shred of a powerhouse's heart."

"Selfish and self-serving, stubborn and willful… his Foundation has also been completely ruined. The Foundation I painstakingly built has been utterly destroyed by his eagerness for quick success; his path ahead is severed… Heh, it is laughable that I was blind to choose such an unpromising thing."

There was only a deep sense of powerlessness in the Ring Spirit's words.

Every word was like a knife, stabbing fiercely into Ye Chen's heart.

His eyes were filled with disbelief, as if he were meeting the Ring Spirit for the first time.

Zhou Chen's eyes were calm, narrowing slightly.

"Since you, Senior, know that rotten wood cannot be carved, why continue to waste away with him until you are exhausted? If you stay with him, you will never be able to reshape your Physical Body in this lifetime."

He paused, his tone carrying a confidence that looked down upon the world.

"How about you follow me, Senior? Become my protector. The background of the Taichu Holy Land is deeper than you can imagine. Within three years, I will help you reshape your Physical Body. It will be ten thousand times better than exhausting your last shred of Soul on this trash."

The Ring Spirit's phantom fluctuated violently; it was clear that Zhou Chen's words had deeply moved him.

The condition of reshaping his Physical Body was indeed extremely tempting to him!

The atmosphere fell into an eerie silence, and Ye Chen's eyes were filled with terror.
